Reactive Ion Etching Pattern
Media Details
Created 2/15/2005
In this scanning electron micrograph we see an example of what may occur when anisotropic conditions for reactive ion etching are not achieved. The horizontal portions of the raised areas in this image are photoresist that was left floating above the silicon surface.
